Give the poor guy a break - he's said that it's a personal project not for sale, he doesn't need to be made to feel like he's letting people down by not offering it.
Who knows, he might be trying to sell the sculpt to one of the production houses, something he'd be unable to do if it was offered for sale here. I don't know how much companies like HT pay, but given the time and expense of moulding, casting and painting individual copies I'm pretty sure his return on investment would be much higher selling to HT versus selling here.

totally agree there!
with so many posting the "please let me have one" and the sort, I'd feel pressure to just give in and make cast just so I wouldn't feel bad for not letting everyone have it.
it's a personal piece guys, do we not know what that means? I know it's natural to say "i want this" as I would honestly want one of these as well. But I also understand and respect the fact that he'd want this to be just his Bale/Bruce. I mean, what makes it special to him anymore if everyone else has one of the same piece? Sure there's money to be made, but money isn't everything. I think I'd prefer to have a one of a kind sculpt that was also made by my own hands than have a sculpt that everyone else has.
just stick to comments and suggestions and/or wait for an update with the head painted.
sorry if I'm stepping on anyone's toes, but I just don't think it's right that after he posted that he may not make it available ppl continue to plead for it be. let the poor guy be

Well, unless he needs the cash!? Artists don't have a lot of money traditionally. Who pays for the beer?

An amazing piece - I love your style
What I love about Adam's style is the apparent absence of it - and that is a huge compliment.
What I mean is, when you look at Adam's 1/6 work, they match the screenshots they are supposed to represent nearly perfectly and there is very little in the way of any stylistic elements which you normally see from sculptors. I guess there is a 'softness' to Adam's style though, very rounded edges and smooth finish with subtle texture.

no one here makes any pressure at adam, so i don't know what you're looking here. he also hasn't said that he won't do it for 100%. At the moment, it's not for sale, but he might consider offering the sculpt, when he wants.
and i for myself am not making any pressure, i just want to let adam know, that there is an immense interest here and it would be so much appreciated if he would make some available. there is nothing wrong asking him, if he will do some.

yeah dude!! He should be happy knowing that we want his heads even more than a HT
I think he already got that. 
However what alese should we talk about? Critics? Not necessary. This head is easily one of the best heads ever done. So which topic?
@ Adam: Werent you planning on doing some Batman heads? Are you sculpting the mask directly on the Bale head or will it be a completly new head?

I believe they are completely new heads - there is a picture floating around where you can see the Batman heads... need to dig it up

It seems I'm feeling argumentative today, so my apologies. And I agree there's nothing wrong with asking if these will be made available. But that was done, and an answer given. And then person, after person, after person asked. And asked again. And some of them came close to begging. Others said that he's got to make it available. I'm sure it was all meant to be complimentary, but to the person being asked, it can sort of feel like the kids in the back of the car saying "Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" The guy has stated his position, if it changes he'll say that too. Shouldn't that be enough?
EDITED TO ADD: Yeah, so I'm sad enough that I went through all the posts and totalled up how many of them expressed interest/asked for it to be released. The number came out at around 30%. You stated four times that you were interested. Others asked, and then asked again, within 3 or 4 posts. For a thread that in it's initial post says it's not for sale that's a lot of pressure, intended or not (the "not for sale" might have been added after the first page or so of requests, but even then the proportion of "add me", "make this for sale", is a lot).

He's not answered me personally yet so I'm going to keep asking.

Well, there's two types of parents who react differently to the "Are we there yet?" situation. The one's with poor character let the kids get to them. They become frustrated, scream to them and can't even concentrate while driving. Then there's the one's that keep their cool and continue driving to reach their destination. I bet Adam is just driving along the way, ignoring our "Are we there yets".
Oh, by the way, I would be interested in one.
